Diner Reviews

"I came here for brunch with a group of friends because I had heard about it and seen it written up - I got the biscuit sandwich and it was the worst food I've had at a restaurant. The eggs were cold and rubbery and the sausage was also cold and looked and tasted like it was frozen. My friend sent her food back to be microwaved. On top of that, there was only one person who was acting as both the server and bartender for the entire upstairs of the restaurant so our service was extremely slow, and the waitress said our bill came up short by $8 when we had double-counted and were actually $2 over. Overall an extremely disappointing experience - I will never be coming back here."

"I had a wonderful time here for brunch with a group of friends. The food was delicious and the service was so fantastic. We did the bottomless mimosas and they just kept 'em coming."

"My family met for brunch last Sunday Morning and had a wonderful experience. We had noted the restaurant several times when driving through the neighborhood and thought it might be a good stop for an informal meal. The menu was varied, food was very good and the service was delightful. When they say bottomless mimosas, they mean it. It fits very well in the neighborhood and we will be back for an evening meal."

"Loved the bartender, loved the server. The ambiance was great with comfy bar seating and great outdoor patio. Sadly the food that came out of the kitchen felt like an afterthought - over-cooked gummy fried green tomatoes and cold fried chicken benedict. Still, there was such great service and so much potential in the menu (not to mention generously flowing bottomless mimosas) that I will probably try again just to make sure."

"Wanted to sit on patio but it was full. Upstairs is nice if not a great atmosphere. Went for bottomless brunch and waitress could not have been better - she made sure our mimosas were refilled. Had chicken and waffles - nice big portion. Would come back again for other option."

"Our waitress really made us feel welcome. The food was great and we had time to chat between the courses. The bottomless mimosas kept zone coming. A very diverse group of diners and a really nice patio to people watch. We were celebrating Father's Day a day early and I m certainly happy we chose Souther Hopspitality."

"My roommate and I went here during the week and had a great experience. We went at 5:30 and the place was empty but we didn't mind because we live near it and know that it is always packed, so the emptiness was a rare treat! We sat upstairs by the window which was a decent view. We weren't too hungry so I got the small plate fish tacos (simple yet delicious) and she ordered the small plate mac and cheese (creamy but not too heavy). We were surprised because neither were that small! Definitely good size portions. We also ordered a side of sweet potato fries (okay but would have preferred without the brown sugar) and asparagus (perfectly salted and flavorful). We were happy with the food and prices. Definitely will be returning again!"

"Had a really nice brunch at Southern Hospitality this weekend. It's often hard to find vegetarian options at brunch, but I had no trouble here. It was also wonderful that bottomless mimosas are only $15 and they will let you keep drinking after you've finished your meal. Our server Emily was incredible. So accommodating and fun- she really made our experience better."

"We had a group of ten, and they did a great job for us. We were virtually alone on the second floor, except for patrons at the bar and a very attentive wait staff. Food was excellent, the room was comfortable and friendly. We stayed, ate, drank, and talked for hours. Highly recommended."

"My group showed up extremely late and so while I waited I sat at the bar for about an hour (bottomless Mimosas). The blonde bartender that helped me was very very attentive and nice. When we finally were seated at a table, the young lady who was our waitress came to take our orders and had to be reminded by the manager to attend to the table, after that.. It was like she forgot that we were there. She only really came back to collect the check.. bad. I thought that maybe the prices didn't really correspond well with the quality of the food."

"I had a great meal with a friend.Strawberry mojito that was so good. I had the fried chicken with mac and cheese and greens.Be prepared that it all comes in one plate, mac and cheese and greens on the bottom, boneless fried chicken breast on top, with gravy on top of that.I asked for my gravy on the side (and, I was glad because I would not have wanted gravy on my other food).The chicken was delicious, as was the gravy, which is a white sauce gravy.The mac and cheese was tasty, although it could have had a bit more cheese in it.The greens were flavored perfectly, especially because they were fresh and pork free.However, I think that they did not wash them well because there was some grit in them.Friend's short ribs were excellent, too.

"I found the experience and food to be a great find. Nice fresh spinach on the Florentine Benedict. Good, high-quality brunch selections, and a "bottom-less" mimosa! That damn glass kept getting filled... Can't wait to try some of the other dishes on a future visit. "

"Got the burger for the first time and I will be adding it to my list of favorites. Going was once again a great idea!"

"I heard about this place and decided to try it after I looked up reviews (of course!). I was very impressed with every aspect of the restaurant. The waiter Peter was Awesome and the food was Great. A friend and I went for brunch and they happened to have bottomless mimosas for $15. I had the florentine Benedict which was delicious and my friend ordered the chicken and waffles which she ate as if it was the Last Supper. The price points were fair and the service was good. I will definitely be returning. "

"The overall restaurant is pretty spacious. The weather was beautiful so the outside sitting looked so inviting. unfortunately there were no spots available outside. My boyfriend and I were seated up stairs. It looks like there is a sizable tv & bar and both inner and outer seating rooms. Our waitress took about 10 minutes to come to our table but water was filled as soon as we sat down. When our waitress arrive she had a lovely personality and then became pretty responsive for the whole meal. To the good stuff - the best seasoned plate of shrimp and grits EVER! My bf had a nice plate of chicken and waffles. Hummus was not the great to me for some reason I tasted mayo. Bottomless Mimosas could use work too acidic. Overall I like SH."

"Booked for a group of 6 and easily was able to sit outside under a shaded awning on a gorgeous Saturday. Our server, Justin, was awesome and gave us special treatment for our birthday girl: strawberries in our mimosas, free coffee shots after the meal, and two extra pitchers of mimosas after the bill! Food was delicious, Chicken & Waffles a must, and overall great location, service, and ambiance. Perfect for brunch before the zoo :)"

"The waiter staff was very nice and attentive. Our food was ready very fast. Food was great, especially the fish tacos. I had the chicken and waffles. The waffles had a great flavor however the chicken was very bland. The size of the chicken breast was very impressive but fell short of any type of seasoning. Also i was disappointed that they didnt have fresh lemonade, it was like minute maid or something. For a restaurant to be southern it should have fresh lemonade and fresh sweet tea."

"We found SoHo to fit our needs very well. We were late in booking a table for 9 the day before our friends arrived from out of town and SoHo was one of the few restaurants with availability. That might have been cause for alarm, but the reviews were overall good so we booked it. We were greeted warmly, seated promptly and served well. The food was reasonably priced, well presented and served hot. Everyone enjoyed their meals, even the 5 sub-teen kids that we had with us. The desserts were very good and also reasonably priced. Overall we had a great time and I'd definitely return. My one suggestion is that, with all those kids with us, it would have been nice to provide a basket of bread/rolls between ordering and dinner."

"chicken and waffles were disappointing. It was a dry fried chicken cutlet, but the waffles were good. Chicken should have been bone in. Fried green tomatoes were heavy. Restaurant was messy looking. "

"Arrived early for a reservation of 6 and was still able to be seated. All hostesses and servers were kind and smiling. The food was great and arrived at the table fast. The only thing I didn't like was that the waitress tried to pull one over about separating the tabs and then proceeded to separate the tab for only 1 couple on the table out of the 3 couples."

"We stopped here in the morning before leaving DC. The brunch was delicious!! My friend & I both devoured our meals. The waitress was extremely friendly and courteous with a tremendous energy"

"Had a WONDERFUL experience at Southern Hospitality for brunch with a group of girlfriends on a sunny day. We opted for bottomless and the mimosas were tasty and re-filled right away. The servers and bartenders were all truly "hospitable" in their demeanor and you could just tell everyone around the place was having a great time! I got the Smoked Salmon BLT which was delicious as well!"

"A pet peeve of mine is a hostess who can't figure out when to abandon policy for common sense. 2 out of my party of 5 arrived for our 2 o clock reservation and asked to be seated. The hostess told us that everyone from our party had to be present to be seated. On this particular day, the weather was atrocious making our party's late arrival completely expected and brunch ends at 3:30 so they wouldn't need to turn our table. After a little back and forth with the hostess, she finally agreed to seat us when 4 of us arrived. {deep sigh} Our waitress was competent but most of the food was forgettable. Mac and cheese was good, but chicken was terribly bland. The mimosas were pleasantly bubbly so if I wasn't starving, I'd return just for those."

"I recently visited Southern Hospitality with a group of friends for Sunday brunch! They have an awesome bottomless mimosas. Our waitress left the entire pitcher on the table for us to enjoy! It was great. Food was good, my meal came out a little luke warm and the fried chicken was a little bland. Other than that it was great experience I will definitely be returning."

"One can't go wrong with Southern Hospitality for an outing with a friend or a group! Service is always great, and the food is pretty good! Of course you can't go wrong with the bottomless mimosas during brunch. If you're looking for a consistently good place for brunch SoHo is it."

"Service was warm and friendly though we did have to ask for drink refills. They were out of a couple of food items - one of which we really wanted (fried green tomatoes). Some of the dishes were excellent - scallops, mac & cheese, shrimp appetizer. Good selection at the bar and drinks were well prepared. Portions were very generous but entrees were just good but nothing outstanding - would probably just go back for drinks and appetizers."

"We had a nice sized group for brunch and Souther Hospitality didn't disappoint. We all ordered something we loved, there's bottomless mimosas, and our waiter was amazing. We had so much fun, enjoying the nice sunny day. We have decided as a group to make this our new it spot for brunch and I can't wait to go back and try new things. The whole menu looks amazing."

"We had a great time and a great meal. The service was excellent except for the hostess ... we were waiting for a friend and she didn't want to seat us until the friend arrived, although we had a reservation and the friend was only a few minutes away. The hostess was rather pushy about it, but we pushed back and finally got seated. Overall it was a great experience, though. The food is awesome and the prices are very reasonable."

"I was really impressed with the mint julep, spiked cider, and cheese platter. (Although, for $14, I was expecting a lot more cheese.) But the ribs, rack of lamb, and sides left a lot to be desired. They tasted about $15 less than they were selling for. I'm sure a lot of hard work went into making them, but they just didn't taste like the "down home" dishes you want from a southern restaurant, nor did they really have much flavor. The service was so friendly and welcoming, though--I'm rooting for this place. I would definitely come back for drinks and small bites."

"Love to try new brunch spots on Sundays so a friend recommended this spot ... Strike 1... I was lost called restaurant like 10 times starting at 12 pm until like 12:45... no one every answered the phone and you couldn't leave a message because mail box was full...Really! Strike 2... the majority of dishes on menu contained porky.. in this day and time Really!!...Being although I don't eat pork or beef I immediately wanted to leave.. but didn't want to be a Debbie downer to the others in my party. Strike3...After ordering our food no one was impressed ...the decision was unanimous we will NOT be returning again. The server was trying to rectify the problems with our food but it was really over for me at that point"
